Ubiquitous Pot-Hunters.

A correspondent calls our attention
to the fact that already the valiant
pothunter has commenced q raid
against the inoffsnsivs prairie chicken,
and that the younstsrs now feastine
and fatteniDg on cottonw wood buds are
being ruthlessly slaughtered. Az
these birds are protected by statute
between March LIST and August lst we
would recommend our correspondent,
or any other person who is cognlzant
Of q violation Of the law In this respect
to enter complaint against the Of
ender. A few convictions would un-
doubtedly operate to bring about .
healthy respect for the law. The local
gun club should take this matter In
hand and see that all prosecutions are
vigorously conducted.

ed to issue will consist OF 325 shares or
thereabouts, and will constitute, with
the number already in force In the

perhaps this season, II may be thought
advisable to increase the issue, In

Choral society.

The chorus Of ladies and gentlemen
met again last evening for rehearsal
for the reading room entertainment.
The gathering Of these singers to-
gether has suggested the idea that We
have undeveloped talent enough in
our town to start q choral society.
There are those who have voices that
ca1 be useful in their way that could
not be induced TO sing under other cir
cumstances. Music In any commun-
ity has an elevating effect. 1t is an
education In every sense, not only to
those who take a part but to others
that come under its influence. This
town has been sadly lacking In this
part of Its social life, for variety Of
reasons, principally from the want Of
some one who was capable and willing
to perform the part Of leader and in
structor. During the few rehearsals
which Prof. Bach has had under his
direction, he has shown q knowledge
of music and leadership that is con-
vincing Of his ability In such posi-.
sion. The Professor has signified \
willingness to instruct chorus II one
can be organized and made perma-
nent Institution. Ii the citizens In
general would take this In hand and
display al interest, an organization Of
such character would be made an as
sured success. IL would be source OF
qualification TO all and reflect credit
upon the town.

Much merriment was occasioned
Sunday afternoon by the antics Of q
party Of young men who were having
pic-uic In q skiff on one Of the
ponds formed by the recent thaw. The
skiff was capsized and one Of the said
young men thinking he WIS bound to
be submerged and possibly drowned II
he staid in the skiff, took u header,
and In three feet Of water, with all his
Sunday clothes on, swan to shore.
Those who witnessed this feat say the
young mans overcoat stood out grace
fully like the tail of a water fowl and
certainly he emulated the goose bird
wonderfully.

Latest intelligence from the
Tongue river dam set at rest all fears
for the safety Of that important work.
About fifty feet Of the earth work or
fan on the reservation side of the river
was broken away by the force of the

the dam proper was assured, the
overplus Of water and Ice escaping in
that way. 1t will not to any extent

extending sympathy and practical help to those

the needy and then she found out those who
were willing to help their need, and she acted as
the intermediary between them. She never lost

unselfish enthusiasm and strong prac-

benevolent workers. Hundreds of working
women have been helped over hard places by
her ministrations. and hundreds of girls have
been held to honest lives amid the perils of the
